Covering the North of England, Damp2Dry specialise in providing expert solutions for problems with damp. Untreated damp can lead to a host of property problems including structural damage so early treatment is crucial.

At Damp2Dry our damp proofing specialists can diagnose the problem and provide the solution which will ensure that your property remains free from damp for years to come. We have many years of experience in the preservation and building industries and can offer an expert damp solution at a very competitive rate. Damp patches on walls and puddles of water can be indicative of a far more serious underlying damp problem and should always be thoroughly investigated.

Rising damp is more common in older properties and this tends to occur through failed damp proof courses. A lot of properties seem to have a number of damp proof courses installed and it is not always down to failed damp proof courses. Plasterwork tends to be one of the main reasons after a damp proof course has been installed and damp starts to show again.

Lateral damp occurs at the ground floor and is associated with adverse ground levels and boundary walls. Also on streets built on hills where concrete floors are higher than the neighbours. Tanking is then required where ground levels cannot be reduced.

Condensation is fast becoming a big problem. Windows streaming and black mould to name but a few problems associated with condensation. Black mould is toxic and should you see this in your property you should get in contact straight away. The humidity levels in your property will need reducing to combat this.

Penetrating damp occurs to any external walls. this could be down to poor pointing, render defects and missing tiles to name but a few. Most external problems get sorted straight away without dealing with the internal plasterwork.

At Damp2Dry we can resolve all issues in relation to damp and can provide systems that can have you back to normal in 2-3 weeks. We can also offer cement based render systems but the drying out time before you can decorate is a much longer process.

"Our community building was a bequest from 1903 when regulations controlling these aspects of construction were in their infancy. Damp2Dry provided a competitive quotation for a process with which I was familar, having commissioned similar work from a different business previously. The D2D team arrived on time, worked efficiently, speedily and tidily, completing on time. The premises were left as clean as they were initially found. Cooperation with other tradesmen (plumber, electrician) was also carried out in a friendly way, and integrated well into the planned timeline. Highly recommended.
